The Earth Stopped Cold At Dawn

Another reason to doubt me 
Another teardrop falls 
Can't wait for a friend when loneliness calls 
Another kiss in the basement 
Pour salt on my tongue 
No one cries for heroes left unsung 

Look at me when I'm talking to you 
Look at me in the eyes 
Then look away and tell me why...why 

Another tasteless movie 
Another kiss goodnight 
Could be a dark oasis in my life 
Another icon smashed to pieces 
By yesterday's romance 
Another hated person no more chances 

Look at me when I'm talking to you 
Look at me in the eyes 
Then look away and tell me why...why 

Playin' with a happy boy 
A cold place for a man 
Familiar faces in a foreign land 

The hands kept spinning around the face 
But the earth stopped cold at dawn 
For a moment, then moved on 
For a moment, then moved on...
